Theme Tuesdays: Work CR-Kai Appreciation

When it comes to relatively affordable, great looking, light, single piece wheels of reputable manufacture the Work CR-Kai wheel stands among heavy weights (in the figurative sense) like the Enkei RPF-1 and the almighty Volk TE37.

Truth be told I like the CR-Kai more than either of those wheels and wouldn’t hesitate to run a set on nearly any vehicle I see myself owning in the near future.

A Theme Tuesday dedicated to this versatile, timeless, wheel is long overdue.

There’s no better way to start this post off than with a set of CR-Kais on a truck. Any wheel that works (ha!) equally well on cars and trucks is noteworthyThese wheels don’t just work on Datsun trucks either, check out this B2200 laying frame over CR KaisIf leading off with two trucks wasn’t unique enough how about CR-Kais on a Thunderbird?
